Abstract: The invention relates to an educational hydraulic unit consisting of a multiplicity of hydraulic valves and elements for a) illustrating the function of these valves and elements with the aid of desk models,  b) preparing a hydraulic circuit on a blackboard,  c) converting the circuit diagram into an assembly, and d) illustrating the function of the circuit in interaction with the valves and elements by means of a movable base frame and an appliance wall (wet) vertically arranged thereon as well as by means of a hydraulic tank and at least one hydraulic cylinder. Each hydraulic valve and/or electrohydraulic appliance or measuring instrument and/or filter has a commercially available transparent plastic outer tube (21) of a larger diameter compared with the hydraulic unit of the same type. The respective valve components, likewise made of plastic or stainless metal, are operatively arranged in the outer tube (21). In this arrangement, end pieces (22, 23) close off the tube, and there are bores in the wall of the tube for the valve inlets and valve outlets at locations of the tube which are suitable for the function. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of this type is intended to be suitable for the recognition of individual words as well as continuous speech. It is to be characterised by robust word pattern recognition in the face of incorrect syllable segmentation and variable diction, e.g. when syllables are slurred. It must also enable fast adaptation of the system to a new speaker and an essentially unlimited generation and extension of the vocabulary from written text without explicit system training through pronunciation. An approximately real-time recognition of words and word sequences should also be possible even with very extensive vocabularies. Known methods of speech recognition require a highly expensive training procedure. Furthermore, an unmanageable flow of hypotheses is generated with continuous speech and a relatively large vocabulary, and even with medium-sized vocabularies. 
<??>According to the invention, the extracted feature vectors are segmented and classified into a set of hypotheses comprising syllable-oriented word sub-units with the aid of a word sub-unit inventory. A word hypothesis set, which is subjected to syntactic analysis in order to identify the spoken phrase, is generated from the hypothesis set by means of a three-dimensional, time-dynamic comparison with diction variants from a reference pattern vocabulary.

Abstract: A fast atom beam source comprises a evacuated cylinder, an anode set at one end or an intermediate portion of the cylinder, a cathode with fast atom emission orifices on it, and set at the other end of the cylinder, and a DC high voltage power supply for generating gas discharge by applying a high voltage between the anode and the cathode. A slit is provided on inside wall of the cylinder and a reservoir for oil or low-melting point metal is connected to the slit. A heater is set on the reservoir for vapourizing the oil or low-melting point metal. It supplies vapor of oil or low-melting point metal into the cylinder. Many ions of oil or low melting point metal are generated in glow through gas (the oil, vapor or the metal vapor) discharge by high voltage applying. They are accelerated towards the cathode. Then, they are neutralized after collision with the vapor of oil or low-melting point metal remaining near the cathode and are emitted from the orifices on the cathode. They constitute a fast atom beam. During such operation, the vapor of oil or low-melting point metal enters the cylinder through the slit and maintains an equilibrium condition of gas density in the cylinder. Thus, an automatic supply of the gas consumed as a fast atom beam is effected without any gas feeding device or any gas adjusting device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing a synthetic board from cellulosic or lignocellulosic fibres is disclosed wherein a standard isocyanate binder is emulsified and immediately applied to the fibres before consolidation into a finished board product. The apparatus includes an emulsification and application nozzle comprising a diluent inlet, a binder inlet, a mixing section for emulsifying the diluent and the binder, and a spray nozzle for applying the binder/diluent emulsion to the fibres. The method includes supplying a binder stream, supplying a diluent stream, emulsifying the binder with the diluent and immediately applying the emulsion to the fibres. The method further includes flushing the binder/diluent emulsion using the diluent at the end of a binder application run to prevent curing of the emulsion and clogging of the apparatus. The present invention can be used to apply the binder/diluent emulsion to the fibres either in the blowline or downstream of the blowline, such as in the blender. The invention further includes a method and apparatus for producing fire-retardant boards in which a fire-retardant chemical such as an ammonium polyphosphate is applied to the fibres downstream of the refiner and upstream of the mat-former.

Title: Circuit arrangement for compensating pulse disturbance

IPC: H04B3/32
Filed: 1991-10-04
Granted: 1997-07-16
Abstract: The receive line (EL1) of a receiving circuit (E1) is connected to a reference line (RL1) via a converter (U11) and a subtraction section (SI). If then a pulse disturbance occurs, this ideally happens at the same time in both lines, the pulse disturbance being supplied to the receive line (EL1) from the reference line (RL1) via the converter (U11) and the subtraction input of the subtraction section (SI) and compensating the pulse disturbance present in the receive line (EL1). The two lines (RL1, EL1) are advantageously carried in a star-quad arrangement in the transmission cable. An unoccupied dummy line can be used as reference line (RL1). In the simplest case, the converter (U11) consists of a normal junction line but preferably exhibits an adaptive filter for simulating the pulse disturbance. If a transmit line is used as reference line, the transmit signal must be additionally compensated for. The circuit arrangement (KS) is connected to a receiving circuit (E1) of a line terminating device of a communication system. The circuit arrangement has the advantage that the source of the pulse disturbance can be unknown. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Described is a method and means for managing access to a logical track of KN blocks of which K are parity blocks. The KN blocks are distributed and stored in an array of N DASDs having K blocks per physical track per DASD. The array includes control means for securing synchronous access to selectable ones of the DASDs responsive to each access request. The method involves (a) formatting the blocks onto the array using a row major order modulus as the metric for balancing the data rate and concurrency (the number of DASDs bound per access) and (b) executing the random sequences of large and small access requests over array. <IMAGE>
